Is Norway facing the end of a beginning?
For too long anti-Semitism in Norway has been a non-topic. For too long, it has been all but impossible to even suggest publicly that the wildly disproportionate, so called “legitimate criticism” of Israel is at least in part motivated by racist hatred. The good news is that the playing field might soon level out. Here’s five [...] […]

New blog: Spain, Israel and the Jews

From Marx to Quisling
Prominent Norwegians such as Kristin Halvorsen, Mads Gilbert and Erik Fosse are not actually doing anything new. They are merely part of a political tradition of the Norwegian left-wing which stretches back to at least the 1930-ies. One of the authors to deal with this aspect of Norwegian political history is Øystein Sørensen, who in his [...] […]

Oslo accord archives still missing

Whatever happened to the archives from the Oslo accords? They vanished in 2006 and have not been seen since. Or have they? Let us know if there is anything new on this case.

Unauthorized translation from Dagbladet on January 27th 2006, by journalist Veslemøy Lode. Ms.Lode refers to another Norwegian newspaper, NyTid, which appears to have broken the story originally.

Documents from Oslo accords vanished

There is not a single document in the Foreign Ministry’s archives from when Norway’s Foreign Minister managed to negotiate a peace agreement between the Palestinians and the Israelis.

On august 19th 1993 the then Foreign Minister Johan Jørgen Holst (Labor) and his staff managed to land a historical treaty between PLO and Israel in Parkveien 45 in Oslo.

13 years afterwards it is not possible to find one single document in the Foreign Ministry’s archives to document the secret negotiations, writes NyTid.
